“Psalm 145”

I will magnify you, O God my King, *
and I will praise your Name for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I give thanks to you, *
and praise your Name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the LORD, and most worthy to be praised; *
there is no end of his greatness.

4 One generation shall praise your works to another, *
and shall declare your power.
5 As for me, I will be talking of the glorious splendor of your majesty, *
and of all your wondrous works.
6 They shall speak of the might of your marvelous acts, *
and I also will tell of your greatness.
7 The remembrance of your abundant goodness shall they proclaim, *
and they shall sing of your righteousness.

8 The LORD is gracious and merciful, *
long-suffering, and of great kindness.
9 The LORD is loving to everyone, *
and his mercy is over all his works.
10 All your works praise you, O LORD, *
and your faithful servants give thanks to you.
11 They speak of the glory of your kingdom *
and talk of your power,
12 That your power may be known to the children of men, *
even the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, *
and your dominion endures throughout all ages.
14 The LORD upholds all those who fall *
and lifts up all those who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon you, O LORD, *
and you give them their food in due season.
16 You open wide your hand, *
and fill all things living with plenteousness.

17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways *
and merciful in all his works.
18 The LORD is near to all those who call upon him, *
to all who call upon him faithfully.
19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him; *
he also will hear their cry and will help them.
20 The LORD preserves all those who love him, *
but he will destroy all the ungodly.

21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD; *
and let all flesh give thanks unto his holy Name for ever and ever.

Proverbs 28 (NLT) –

2 When there is moral rot within a nation, its government topples easily.
But wise and knowledgeable leaders bring stability.

12 When the godly succeed, everyone is glad.
When the wicked take charge, people go into hiding….

28 When the wicked meet disaster, the godly flourish.

The Kingdom of God is glorious

Those who bless God from their hearts rejoice to see him enthroned, glorified, and magnified in power.

  • Time, eternity, and all space are filled with the glories of God.
  • His works praise him, but they cannot crown him: this remains for holy hands and hearts.
  • It is their high pleasure to tell of the glory of his kingdom in its justice, kindness, eternity, and so forth.

The Kingdom of God is powerful

All power comes from God.

  • Apart from him the laws of nature would be inoperative.
  • His power is the one source of force—mechanical, vital, mental, spiritual.
  • Beyond the power of God which has been displayed, infinite force lies latent in God himself.

The Kingdom of God is everlasting

The Lord’s kingdom is without beginning, without break, without bound, and without end.

  • He never abdicates his throne, neither does he call in a second to share his empire.
  • None can overthrow his power, or break away from his rule.
  • Neither this age, nor the age to come, nor ages of ages shall cause his sovereignty to fail.

Men come and go like shadows on the wall, but God reigns forever.

__ Spurgeon

“Psalm 139” (Far Too Wonderful) –

The New Cloverdale Psalter (2019 Update of 1535 Original) 

“Psalm 139”

1 O LORD, you have searched me out and known me; *
you know my sitting down and my rising up; you understand my thoughts from afar.
2 You examine my path and my places of rest, *
and are acquainted with all my ways.
3 Indeed, there is not a word on my tongue, *
but you, O LORD, know it altogether.
4 You have enclosed me behind and before, *
and have laid your hand upon me.
5 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, *
so excellent I cannot attain to it.

6 Where shall I go then from your Spirit, *
or where shall I flee from your presence?
7 If I climb up to heaven, you are there; *
if I make my bed in the Grave, you are there also.
8 If I take the wings of the morning *
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
9 Even there shall your hand lead me, *
and your right hand shall hold me.
10 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,” *
then shall my night be turned to day.
11 Even the darkness is not dark to you, and the night is as clear as the day; *
the darkness and the light to you are both alike.

12 For you yourself made my inmost parts; *
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
13 I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; *
marvelous are your works, and my soul knows it very well.
14 My bones were not hidden from you *
when I was made in secret and fashioned in the depths of the earth.
15 Your eyes beheld my substance, while I was yet unformed; *
and in your book were all my members written,
16 Which day by day were fashioned, *
when as yet there was none of them.

17 How dear to me are your thoughts, O God. *
How great is the sum of them!
18 If I were to count them, they would be more in number than the sand. *
When I wake up, I am present with you.
19 Oh, that you would slay the wicked, O God! *
Depart from me, you bloodthirsty men.
20 For they speak unrighteously against you; *
your enemies take your Name in vain.
21 Do I not hate those, O LORD, who hate you, *
and do I not loathe those who rise up against you?
22 Indeed, I hate them with a perfect hatred; *
they have become my own enemies.

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart; *
try me and examine my thoughts.
24 Look well if there be any way of wickedness in me, *
and lead me in the way everlasting.

God made you

God has put all your parts together… God formed your members, and united them in a bodily frame and form before you were born—he must be able to understand all your thoughts and feelings. As you were not concealed from God before you saw the light, so you can not be hidden from God anywhere.

  • Whatever you are naturally or supernaturally, is a work of God.
  • Whatever others are, for better or worse, God still made them.
  • No matter your deficiencies , God knows you and loves you.

—Albert Barnes.

God planned you

  • Your life, from the beginning to the end, is in God’s good, gracious, and merciful hand.
  • That God knows all about you and still loves you, is cause for joy and comfort.

God search our hearts

  • What a mercy that there is one being who can know us to perfection! He is intimately at home with us. He is graciously inclined towards us, and is willing to bend his omniscience to serve the end of our sanctification…. By your providence, by your word, by your grace, and by your Spirit, lead me evermore.

__ Spurgeon

Think and be careful what thou art within,
For there is sin in the desire of sin:
Think and be thankful, in a different case,
For there is grace in the desire of grace.

—John Byron, 1691-1763.

Prayer:

The birth, and/or adoption, of a child is a joyous and solemn occasion in the life of a family. Our heavenly Father has given us the Spirit of adoption, that we who were strangers might become members of the household of God. It has pleased Almighty God, our heavenly Father, to bless families with the gift of children.

+ Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

+ Watch over your children, O Lord, as their days increase; bless them and guide them, and keep them unspotted from the world. Strengthen them when they stand; comfort them when discouraged or sorrowful; raise them up if they fall; and in their hearts may your peace which passes understanding abide all the days of their life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

+ Lord Jesus, be mindful of your promise. Think of us, your children, and when we shall depart, speak to our spirits these loving words: “Today you shall be with me in joy.” O Lord Jesus Christ, remember us, your children who trust in you, when our tongues cannot speak, when the sight of our eyes fails, and when our ears are stopped. Let our spirits always rejoice in you and be joyful about our salvation, which you, through your death, have purchased for us. Amen.

+ Hasten, O Father, the coming of your kingdom; and grant that we your children, who now live by faith, may with joy behold your Son at his coming in glorious majesty; even Jesus Christ, our only Mediator and Advocate. Amen.

The LORD brought Israel out of Egypt

  • The Lord brought them out; brought them all out; brought them out at the very hour when his promise was due; brought them out despite their being mingled among the Egyptians; brought them out never to return… further proof of his favor to the chosen ones.
  • He turned the land of plenty into a house of bondage, and the persecuted nation was glad to escape from slavery. The unfailing mercy of the Lord is gloriously seen in his separating his elect from the world. He brings out his redeemed and they are henceforth a people who show forth his praise.

With a strong hand and outstretched arm

  • In the Exodus the great power and glory of Jehovah were seen…. God worked with great display of force, and with extraordinary majesty.
  • Even thus was it in the deliverance of each one of us from the enslavement of sin; “according to the working of his mighty power which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places.”
